Monthly results Month: November Results Trades: 19 Wins: 6 Losses: 13 Monthly Total: -$13.05 Yearly Total: -$289 What Worked: FGDB, only took 8 all month and only 2 worked, but this was still a profitable month for this pattern, also took 1x SGD which was a follow on the FGDB as still thought it had legs and that won also. What failed. AHPM took 1 trade lost, RCT took 4, 1 small winner, but that ended, as a loss month and 1x oracle, which is highly unsuccessful for me to take over the year stats, but think I am using oracle on a stock now, when I don’t see any entry and use that point as a way to get in when I have no proper plan, will track mental state of this, as very rare I use oracle. What work have I done this month: I have attended every webby from Ellis, Sykes and jack, all Bohens PMP, most of the Double downs, but with work sometimes miss some, mon-fr too and from work still on with riz podcasts, I have read books this month, The laws of trading and Atomic habbits and finished market wizards, I am writing in my trade diary every day, as well as tracking my setups, buys and misses and patterns as well as in excel, I am printing every chart of every trade I make, as well as trades of FGDB or 3DS I missed, then accessing a plan of why, how and when I could enter and exit on these as well as the trades I make or miss, so I have descriptions of each one, to help lock in, similar to how writing this, locks in what I have done this month and how I improve, I have shelf of folders now and at the end of each month I like to go through these and see how my plans and thoughts are changing. What have I learnt: I am learning that I am sacred to take certain entries in trades, these I have been printing to access why I refused to take the entry even so I had the plan actually wrote down and I do believe its just me being simply sacred of a ticker dropping hard, because I have been in some that have failed and that memory of 1 bad trade or 1 shocking drop, stays lodge there affecting my execution, so I believe they all will and this is affecting my execution, instead I should be looking at the bigger picture, that my gains will out way my losses, FGDB were not brilliant this month, but even so I took 8 and 6 were loses and only 2 were winners, but it was still profitable and tbf the 2 that were profitable were not big % gainers and I took the meat of move. What do I need to work hard on: Biggest thing by far is I NEED TO HAVE MORE FAITH IN MY PLAN, some will lose, that is enivitable, but if I am not taking them, I cant win either, every trade I take, I know my stop, so I know what my loss will be, so why be sacred, if it loses it loses, but I can’t refuse as many as I did in November, some turned out to be great runners, and just one of these great runners would of covered a many load of losers and I realise very trader has these entries they wished they took, but these hurt more because these are actual plans wrote down ready for execution and when the time came I talked myself out of them, so this is a note to myself, I WILL TAKE EVERY PLAN I WRITE DOWN IN THE MONTH OF DECEMBER and then see at the end of the month where I am and re access then. Overall Feeling on the month: happy that I didn’t get destroyed in a choppy month, but also disappointed that I refused to take some great trades, although I also didn’t many crappy poor trades, but no data to back this up, only what plans I had and didn’t execute, so I seem to be tracking and watching the correct one, so its all the learning curve, 1% improvements at a time and feel these are happening, slowly and surely, I am more engaged and committed to this process, then I have ever been and passion is growing each month. 1% 1% 1% 1% add up. Goal for next month: To take every ticker plan I write down, if it goes to my plan entry point, time and not talk myself out of it, continue to track FGD & 3DS and really home in on this pattern.

Monthly results: Month: October 2025 Results Trades: 36 Wins: 10 Losses: 16 Winning %: 28 Monthly Total: +$10.42 Yearly Total: -$275.95 What Worked: 3DS & news trades, although only took 2x 3DS, both won, News plays also worked. What failed. FGDB, frustrating month for these, 20 trades I took and only 4 winners and 6 losses and -$55 for the month, but missed a few crackers, due to either taking from wl list early, or them gapping up and too sacred to play higher than the levels I planned. What work have I done this month: I have been to every webby, rewatched Ellis webbys, still listen to podcasts Mon-Fri too and from work as well as any free walking time, Listen to Bohen mostly twice everyday on DIT and his weekly summary and recaps, still reading as much as I can before bed or when free for a little while, finished the traders handbook, trader lion and now reading market wizards. Up early every morning to go through my watchlists and set trading plans for the day and watching markets, plans and stocks most of the day while at work and home, zero TV, if I am awake its time to learn, apart from some time needed to enjoy with the children, anytime can be study time. What have I learnt: I am still putting all my effort into FGDB, I have learnt there are numerous ways to enter these and I only really know 1 what that works for me at the moment, 3DS when available are great taking the r/g move, I still doubt myself when I have worked support & resistance levels, only to watch a thought out trade bounce off the support and get to the resistance, I feel this will only change with time and the more I trade these patterns, the more I will start to believe in myself. What do I need to work hard on: FGDB, that is my number one aim, to learn this pattern, I need to learn to enter when its gap up ah/pm and is above the r/g and doesn’t come back to r/g, how to enter as missed a few great % runners because of this. Overall Feeling on the month: Fairly happy, $$ I am not bothered about right now, I have taken a few sub par trades, but have either stuck to plan and took a small loss or got out earlier when not working, the more I see FGDB, the more I will learn and although I don’t believe there has been that many this month, the ones I have missed I am learning from and learning and plotting how I could of executed the buy and sell and worked out future plans if I see this again. Goal for next month: Hit more FGDB, take a FGDB that has actually gapped up and then trusted either pm hod break for entry or the pull back to support for entry, more confidence is needed in these, but I feel this will come with more practice, so my goal is too practice more on FGDB.
